The legitimate things I learned about sex were from books that the school gave us to read. Those were the facts, figures and terms. The actual how-to came from *ahem* "magazines". I basically figured that if the women in the pictures were having HALF as much fun as they were pretending to, there must be something good about what those gents were doing with/for/to them.

Honestly, though, there is SO little real sexual education in the schools, and what there is gets obliterated in 10 seconds flat by the next cRap video that the kids watch.

Lizzie is absolutely right; there was a time in our history when young people were told about finding a husband or wife and falling in love. What happened in the bedroom was for people in committed, loving relationships to know, or at least to discover together.

These days, you have CHILDREN, not young adults, but 6- and 7-year-olds revealing WAY too much in their manner of dress and being allowed to simply accept and legitimize sexual behaviors that are not only dangerous in their promiscuity, but DEADLY in their abandonment of anything resembling love and commitment to one's sexual partner as a WHOLE person.

What kids today know about SEX, in terms of what to put where, is way beyond what any of us probably definitively knew at their age. What they know about SEXUALITY, about how sex is just one part of our abilities and our worth as human beings, is laughably deficient.

When young people are once again taught how to behave toward one another in society, then maybe one day they will be able to care about one another to deserve to be taught how to express mature, responsible sexuality. It will be VERY different than their imitations of the gutter-trash morons that flood our media today in the guise of "entertainment".
